A band with H.E.R., Zendaya and Khelani? Yes, please!

In an interview on The Carlos Watson Show, H.E.R. revealed that she used to perform with Khelani as a kid, and Euphoria star Zendaya was almost added to the mix as well. 

"Dylan Wiggins, who is D'wayne Wiggins' son from Tony! Toni! Toné! - we used to be in a band together. We used to perform together when we were really young, and Kehlani actually was in our band," the Grammy award-winning singer explained. 

She then added that Zendaya "was going to be in it [the band] at one point".

"But yeah, they all grew up together. I came into the picture in Oakland, and we used to perform together."

According to People, the teen group went by the name "Poplyfe" and even appeared on season six of America's Got Talent
